Journal ArticleDOI

Post-craniotomy analgesia: current practices in British neurosurgical centres--a survey of post-craniotomy analgesic practices.

TL;DR: It is proposed that patient controlled analgesia with morphine is an efficacious and safe alternative to codeine phosphate in post‐craniotomy analgesia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diagnostic accuracy of dopaminergic imaging in prodromal dementia with Lewy bodies.

TL;DR: Dopaminergic imaging had high specificity at the pre-dementia stage and gave a clinically important increase in diagnostic confidence and so should be considered in all patients with MCI who have any of the diagnostic symptoms of DLB.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitative EEG as a biomarker in mild cognitive impairment with Lewy bodies

TL;DR: There was a shift in power from beta and alpha frequency bands towards slower frequencies in the pre-alpha and theta range in MCI-LB compared to healthy controls and there is an overlap between the two MCI groups which makes it difficult to distinguish between them based on EEG alone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epidural analgesia provides effective pain relief in patients undergoing open liver surgery

TL;DR: The experience shows that epidural analgesia is safe and effective in providing adequate pain relief following open liver surgery and the extent of liver resection and post-operative chest infection had a significant influence on the length of stay.
